SPOT MY ABSURDITY IN PROTESTING AGAINST SLAUGHTER

An RMIT lecturer is angry that I'm right about the murder of Egyptian Copts: "The anti-Orientalist Right such as Andrew Bolt howling against Islam in defence of Christians in the Middle East is an absurdity only because much of the Left ... has been callipered intellectually by the post-colonial studies’ colour-by-numbers hierarchy of oppression."  

Bolt's not just absurd but it's absurdity born of ignorance  in the Murdoch Mediashpere

  The Coptic Church and Politics in Egypt - Carnegie Middle East ..

The absurdity and reasons why Christians are being attacked and why  they are targets is ignored by both Bolt and it would seem the RMIT lecturer. Israel's want to rid North Africa and the Middle East of Secular Military Arabic Despots like Saddam Qaddafi Assad and others. It's has been on the drawing board since the 80's. The Islamic brotherhood was financed by the Saudis who were threatened on one side by political secularism and on the other by Iran and the Shia involvement in politics. What began as a political contest between the rural and urban populations in these countries depended on who supported who and who ruled. In Iraq it was Sunni minority of Saddam vs the nations Shia population after Saddam's demise it has become Shia rule of a puppet government vs a Sunnis minority population and ISIS. In Syria it's Alawite rule of Assad vs a majority Sunni population and Egypt a Military Secular rule inherited from Mubarak vs the rural Sunni population and Brotherhood.. 

The politics  the foundation on which this  conflict is based religious differences a means to an end only. The Christian West and the Israeli  right wing Jews along with the Saudi salaphist rulers supported these uprisings and they still do today as seen in Syria. Christians Jews and other minorities in these countries have tended to align themselves with the ruling casts not because they are  regarded as apostates. They have existed there for 1000s of years. They are part of the politics today they have protection and align themselves with Sisi's government.  So you have you had the Brotherhood covertly supported by the Christian West attacking Domestic Christians whose Church has aligned itself with the military regime that imprisoned Morsi

 Bolt's absurdity is his protest and his emphasis on religious difference when the difference is in fact fundamentally a political one.

The Cairo bombings were an attack on the ruling generals of Egypt and the Coptic Church's support of them anybody who supports them is a target. The Copts just happen to have taken sides and are the least protected meat in the political sandwich. They are part of the wealthy urban class that represents the ruling class of Egypt. Bolt's absurdity springs from his ignorance and his amplification of  that ignorance. Simply because he has the platform and space to distribute an ignorant message is why he needs to be named and shamed.

 The Coptic Church and Politics in Egypt - Carnegie Middle East ..

" For decades, the Church was close to the regime and served as the sole political voice of Egypt’s Coptic community, the country’s largest religious minority. But with the ouster of former president Hosni Mubarak, that voice became fragmented, as Copts started to get involved in politics on their own."

" Pope Tawadros II, endorsed the July 2013 military intervention against Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood–backed regime. Since then, the Brotherhood and its supporters have seen the Copts as part of what they say was a conspiracy against Morsi, and pro-Morsi protesters, angry at the Church’s backing of the military takeover, have attacked Coptic churches and property."

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

COULTER: TRUMP WRONG ON SYRIA. BUT WHAT ABOUT NORTH KOREA?

Ann Coulter has a point - but only if you ignore the vital demonstration effect Trump hopes to have on North Korea: "Trump’s Syrian misadventure  violates every promise... We leap in, thinking we’re helping the poor devils under the thumb of a dictator — and then the new tribe takes over and oppresses everyone else, ...while hating us even more."

  Bolt delights in revealing his bogun bullying strategies that are the based on his values. School yard tactics to gain and maintain power posturing that pushes the envelope. If you want to send a message to your stronger opponents and challengers it's quite ok to publicly punish others.

 Having complained how Christians are being attacked in Egypt simply because they are Christians  Bolt praised Coulters analysis of Trump's actions in doing so she admits that good old god bothering America in fact gave birth to and supported Islamist extremists in their political ambitions. Ambitions allied to an American and Israeli view of a chaotic North Africa "We have never succeeded at turning a Third World dictatorship into a paradise. The history of these things is that removing a Middle Eastern strongman always makes things worse — for example, in Iran, Iraq, Libya, and Egypt." Coulter

 Yes Christian USA supported the Islamists in each of these countries in the hope of changing the politics and the possible formation of a secular pan Arabic military union against Israel in doing so that have only made things worse. In Egypt the Coptic Church became politically active and sided against Morsi and and his Christian backers and they are active and pro el-Sisi now. Something Bolt ignores which is the fundamental essence of his ignorant message.

As for the Christian morality  and the ethics of bombing a country to send a message to others and calling that ok what message does that send to the rest of the world? The world isn't a schoolyard it's made up of sovereign nations. When Hitler marched into Czechoslovakia WW2 began.

 Apparently Syria, and Afghanistan weren't informed that their sovereignty was being  ignored by Trump while that of Korea's remains respected.  Can Russia bomb Ukraine as a warning to others. It's certainly neither an excercise in peace keeping nor an exercise in Liberation. It's an exercise in threat that mirrors Nth Korea's posturing but has taken it further. No shots into the sea by Trump no consideration of legality quite the opposite just a step closer to an escalation to war not by governments but 2 fruit cake leaders with their fingers on the trigger with Bolt crying it's about time.

MUSTAFA: NOT WALEED ALY'S PET MUSLIM VICTIM

Waleed Aly still played the victim card, even when he won the Gold Logie. He claimed he'd won it for actors like Mustafa so scared of our racism that they'd changed their names. But Mustafa now says that's not why he changed his name at all, and he didn't want to be drafted into Aly's tribe of Muslim victims. 

 A Have you ever noticed the number of times Andrew Bolt attacks Waleed Aly and the number of times Waleed says nothing about Andrew Bolt? Have you ever noticed Bolt is intent on disparaging Waleed rather than really addressing any issues made. Is it because Waleed actually addresses issues like the Video of the Muslim women  that Bolt took to mocking. That Aly with a greater audience made Bolt look like what he actually is a racist bully in a suit. Waleed Aly made Bolt look like the klutz he is simply by playing a video of the advice Australian Imams recorded for their followeres the representative majority of Muslims in this country that Bolt ignores. Yes Bolt looked a fool his name wan't mentioned and wasn't given attention. So Bolt in his obsessed fashion like Rumpelstiltskin 

 

 

 

UNION STOPS WOMAN SCREENING WOMAN'S FILM. SAYS BAD FOR WOMEN

The Red Pill is a documentary filmed by a woman about men who feel they are now bullied by the gender warriors. The reaction to it suggests they are right. Sydney University's student union has now defunded a student screening, falsely claiming the film promotes violence against women. One of the film's (female) producers responds.

 Can we note that Bolt is promoting his favorite hobby horse the reversal of everything. In this case it's promoting the belief that men are the victims in a feminist society to day. He does it on Race where whites are now the victims on Religion where Christians are terrorized and literally on everything. Bolt uses this as his shtik rather creating a platform for reasoned debate to be heard from both sides.  He's not the Drum, Q&A, The Insiders, Insight thanks for the ABC. Murdoch has Fox , has Sky Australia and wants Sky UK. Thank you the UK ahs the BBC that has been watered down We have the ABC the USA doesn't have either it has Fox News. Stop the Murdurfication of Global commentary by Rupert.
 

BOW TO THE POSSUMS, FOR WE HAVE SINNED

Monica Dux is a caricature of an Age columnist. Note the tribalism of her "we". Note the collective (white) guilt. Note the self-hatred and prostrating before dark green gods: "The possums eat my vegies, but .... by comparison, we have mowed down their trees, destroyed their habitat, ravaged the entire earth, all because it suited us."

Bolt hasn't learned much from the past. We brought in rabbits to declare them a pest. We imported cane toads to fix a commercial problem and created a bigger one. Carp are choking our river systems and deafforestation of land of natural salt bush has turned land into unusable dust bowls and as far as Andrew Bolt is concerned all for the greater good. Anyway Bolt is losing the war on commercializing the environment for commercial sake only the stock market is reflecting an enormous change. When Adani can't get private finance and Banks are reviewing the investment strategies Bolt's future looks grim. When coal requires governments to make billion dollar investments to kick start commercial dreams no institutional investors will touch you are moving towards Mussolini's fascist dream. With this move comes  more government control of people because democracy goes out the door. But then Bolt doesn't favor democracy

 

MAN SUES; WAS'N'T WARNED AGAINST RUNNING INTO WALL

Seriously? A man is suing Scienceworks after he ran into a wall at an exhibit challenging people to run faster than Cathy Freeman: "No padding had been put at the end of the track to prevent injury and he had not been warned of the risk of running into the wall, he claims." Perhaps we should also warm people about gravity?  

  Alright I'm at a loss and I guess this just another example of Andrew Bolt's lack of professionalism when he's not produced and tries to go it alone "

"Seriously? A man is suing Scienceworks after he ran into a wall at an exhibit challenging people to run faster than Cathy Freeman." Bolt
His Update  has nothing to do with this story at all
Reader Robert:
I'm one of the organisers of the original Brisbane screening. This was the third Australian screening and the first outside of Melbourne........."Update

The update is about the "Red Pill"  and two blogs up. How is Bolt going to handle the loss of production staff employed to make him seem good rather than be good at anything? This all goes to show just what a polished Newscorp turd  Bolt really is. He's a 59 year old Jimmy Olsen.

Update 
Bolt corrected the mistake I wonder who pointed it out to him he'd never have found it himself

As for the man that sued well he got his advice from his lawyers on a no win no cost basis. He probably had to pay the insurance premium that covers the legal cost of the claim any way. The Insurance companies well they are an alternative to betting shops whose actuaries have pre calculated the risk on these events. You can fund and invest in the share of class action suits these days where lawyers are certain of payment the punters risk the premiums they are asked to pay the Insuarnce companies that cover the bet. The law is just one big betting shop in the hands of much smarter ambulance chasers than yesteryear. It's Bolt's free market in action don't tell me he want's it totally deregulated and simply handed over to the lawyers to determine who was at fault. Should Science works be able to counter sue the man for the bad publicity should the man lose his case?
